So… I am running Windows XP SP3 in a virtual machine. It is a clean copy of Windows XP and it has a valid license key. I had another virtual machine running Windows XP, but I ended up replacing it in the process of troubleshooting issues with the installation process of WinNC (it's installed now). Given that Microsoft has disabled SHA-1 for their Windows Update service in June of this year, I can't automatically update Windows XP anymore. I went to the Update Catalog and downloaded some of the updates, but I was struck with this when I tried to run one:

I have tried to look online for a solution, but the only real advice that I could find is that I shouldn't run these installers from a network share (my account is the only account on there, so it's the administrator account, which means that everything is already running with administrator privileges).

Does anybody present have any idea as to what could be going on? Also, thank you in advance!
